The Gabelli Global Small and Mid Cap Value Trust is registered as a diversified closed-end management investment company. The Fund's investment objective is to seek long term growth of capital. The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal market conditions, at least 80% of its total assets in equity securities (such as common stock and preferred stock) of companies with small or medium sized market capitalizations (small cap and mid cap companies, respectively) and at least 40% of its total assets in the equity securities of companies located outside the United States and in at least three countries. The GGZ average annual return since 2014 is shown above.
The Average Annual Return on the GGZ average annual return since 2014 page and across the coverage universe of our site,
is a measure of the annualized return over the past ten years (or specified start date) for a given investment
(up to the end of prior trading session recorded). Arguably, choosing ten years for a measurement
period is on the one hand completely arbitrary, but on the other hand provides a sufficiently long window
to capture long-term trends.
Thus, researching Average Annual Returns is good practice for investors — whether GGZ average annual return since 2014 or other benchmarks/peers
— and when doing so it is also important to factor in dividends, because a financial instrument's annualized return is
more than just the change in price if that instrument pays a dividend or coupon. Our website aims to empower investors
by performing the GGZ average annual return calculation with any dividends reinvested as applicable (on ex-dates).
